Can i get hiv if i give a oral sex with a male.
Sorry, because my english skill.
I'm a man and I've had back and forth oral sex with another man. I was suffering from pharyngitis at that time. and since then it has been 36 days. I went for a rapid HIV antibody test at a hospital in Vietnam. and negative results. Should I be satisfied with this result? Can the results change after 12 weeks?
Thank you!

Your doctor is speaking about 'theoretical' risk which is different than real risk. In all these years of HIV being a thing, no one has ever gotten HIV from oral sex. Not a single proven or documented case ever. I would not be worried about this event. ALL tests (hiv test, regardless of type or generation) done at 12 weeks or beyond are accurate.
You will always get a negative test result. The results can't change since oral is not a risk for hiv.

But my doctor in vietnam say i can be infection hiv but the risk is low. So i very worrie.
I also have granulomatous pharyngitis, will that increase my risk of getting hiv
Your situation involves personal contact with an object in air (finger, hand, penis, lips, cuts, maybe blood, etc. ). You will be happy to learn that you had no risk, because you can't get hiv from personal contact except unprotected penetrating vaginal or anal, neither of which you did and you didn't share hollow needles to inject with which is the only other way to acquire hiv - there are only 3 ways to get hiv. Analysis of large numbers of infected people over the 40 years of hiv history has proven that people don't get hiv in the way you are worried is a risk.
HIV is a fragile virus in air or saliva and is effectively instantly dead in either air or saliva so the WORST that could happen is dead virus rubbed you, and obviously anything which is dead cannot live again so you are good. Blood and cuts would not be relevant in your situation since the hiv has become effectively dead, so you don't have to worry about them to be sure that you are safe.
There is no reason for a person to test when they are safe. The advice took into consideration that the other person might be positive, so move on and enjoy life instead of thinking about this non-event. hiv prevention is straightforward since there are only 3 ways you can become infected, so next time you wonder if you had a risk, ask yourself this QUESTION. "Did I do any of the 3?" Then after you say "No, I didn't" you will know that it's time to move on back to your happy life.
No one got hiv from what you did during 40 years of hiv history and no one will get it in the next 40 years of your life either. You can do what you did any time and be safe.
